What ever became of the RCA mystery tube?

Hi folks,
I was just going through some old files and I found these two pictures of an old Ebay listing for some sort of RCA (?) indicator lab sample:
Does anybody have more information about this? I am not even sure
what kind of device we are dealing with. Judging from the coated
wires it is probably gas-filled, making this a gas discharge
display. In 2011, after it was discovered on Ebay, it was
conjectured that Giorgio Basile won the auction, see his
magnificent website here:
http://www.lampes-et-tubes.info/index-e.htm . Unfortunately, it is
not listed there. So I am wondering: does anyone around here have
pictures of this wonderfully interesting tube in action?
I am curious to hear your thoughts.
Cheers
Jens
